how certain are you that this will truly block them all? Many of these things may have a "Legitimate interest" thing going on, and I do not trust those prompts to object to that by pressing "reject all"

RON SWANSON: I reject all cookies.

Wait, I don't think I was clear enough. I didn't ask to reject a lot of cookies. I reject all cookies.

legitimate interest is still not a valid legal basis for data collection/tracking in Europe, so it's not that big of an issue (...but it still allows them to do more they usually can without "legitimate interest"). also most tracking scripts and cookies will be blocked by uBlock anyway
